One of the biggest reasons I started traveling in the first place, 8 years ago, was to practice self love. I had listened to what society wanted from me for too long. I wasn\u2019t listening to me. As a result, it was hurting my self-esteem.<\/p>\n

Because self love is about being true to who you are \u2013 no matter what.<\/p>\n

It was only at the point where I had studied the \u2018right\u2019 degree, got the \u2018perfect\u2019 job, met the boyfriend I could safely take home to my parents and become the hipster London would be oh so proud of that I was like \u2018Whoah\u2026this isn\u2019t \u2018it\u2019 at all. I gotta get out of here asap for my own critical personality development!\u2019<\/p>\n

You hear me?<\/p>\n

\"Self<\/p>\n

And getting out of there wasn\u2019t running away from my problems. In fact, it was running towards my problems and fears head on so that my self confidence could thrive!<\/p>\n

Because I was desperate to see who I REALLY was; what I could do and what I was fully capable of. My self worth!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m STILL doing it! I love myself and freaking love life allowing me to explore my soul\u2019s purpose.<\/p>\n

What is self love?<\/h2>\n

Learning to love yourself is accepting and being proud of who and what you are. You appreciate, support, respect and care for yourself so that you get to the top of that freaking mountain\u2026physically and theoretically!<\/p>\n

Self-love, like most skills we have in life, can be practiced so that we become a master at it. Are you ready for some radical self love?<\/p>\n

Why self love exercises are so important<\/h2>\n

Life is tough and solo female travel is a wonderful challenge. If you\u2019re building confidence and belief in yourself, you\u2019ll have the strength to take on any challenge you\u2019re presented with on the road. Because oh boy,\u00a0I\u2019ve had some challenges<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Self love helps keep your mind, body and soul totally kickass. And by becoming a warrior woman, you can embrace your time with others you meet along your way.<\/p>\n

\nLove yourself<\/em><\/p>\n

How to love yourself?<\/h2>\n

Firstly, allow yourself to travel. You\u2019ll feel uncomfortable facing your fears full on but ultimately, you will discover YOU.<\/p>\n

Secondly, you can pop some of these self love exercises I\u2019m going to show you right into your traveling pocket.<\/p>\n

What makes me qualified to even tell you this<\/h2>\n

I used to work as a therapist for the NHS (National Health Service) in the UK using CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy<\/a>) techniques. If you were feeling sad, stressed, anxious or not getting enough sleep, your doctor would send you to me for 8 sessions. From one-on-one to massive group sessions, I have worked with thousands of people to help them improve their mind difficulties.<\/p>\n

And I used to be very socially anxious! However confident I was on the outside, and however much I loved socialising, I was still fretting on the inside about what people thought of me.<\/p>\n

\"Self<\/p>\n

Try out these self love exercises, with patience and determination, and you will start to see changes<\/p>\n

1. Do all the things your mamma told you to<\/h2>\n

You know what I\u2019m talking about. Brushing your teeth, eating your fruit and veg, getting enough sleep, having time out and relaxation instead of being on the go all the time. These simple self care exercises can start to slip when you\u2019re on the road. You need to keep your body happy and healthy, so that your mind is like a tiger rawr!<\/p>\n

2. Find routine in an unpredictable world<\/h2>\n

Travel can be fast-paced, especially if you\u2019re on a tight schedule and want to make the most of a destination. This can mean changing locations, routines and even time zones quickly. And that, wrecks havoc with your inner compass. Yikes. To combat this, wherever I am, and whoever I am with, I make sure that the first thing I do in the morning is my morning routine.<\/p>\n

By doing the same thing everyday, this creates familiarity, structure and strength for my day ahead. I am building confidence within myself every morning, so I am ready to succeed!<\/p>\n

It all starts with a great night\u2019s sleep, make sure you get a full 7-8 hours of quality sleep, checkout these king size mattresses<\/a> if you need to improve your sleep environment.<\/p>\n

You can mix things up so that they suit your lifestyle and what feels good for you. Here\u2019s just some of the things I love to do in the morning to get you started:<\/p>\n
